Product Information
General Information:
AdvaCare is a GMP manufacturer of Lisinopril Tablets.
Lisinopril is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor. Lisinopril works by widening the blood vessels; with this effect, blood flow more smoothly and this allows the heart to function more efficiently.
By lowering blood pressure, lisinopril reduces the risk of heart attack and stroke. The relaxation of blood vessels in your body reduces stress and excessive pressure from the heart. Lisinopril is eliminated unchanged in the urine. This accounts for up to 95% of lisinopril excretion.
Side Effects:
As with all pharmaceutical medicines, some unwanted effects can occur from the use of lisinopril tablets. Always consult a physician for medical advice before use. Common side effects may include chest pain, headache, persistent cough, low blood pressure, and dizziness. Serious side effects may include kidney damage, liver failure, hypersensitivity, high potassium levels, and irregular heartbeat.
For a comprehensive list of all possible effects, consult your doctor. If any symptom persists or gets worse, or you notice any other symptoms, then please call your doctor immediately.
